Sally Ford and The Pachuco Playboys

This 7 piece combo play sultry Cuban grooves and original tunes with a shot of Nu YoTican Latin soul. Driven by piano, guitar, acoustic bass, sparkling horns and a full percussion, Sally Ford and The Pachuco Playboys play the roots of Salsa. From WOMAD to Broome, Alice Springs to the Spiegeltent, music festivals to Melbourne clubs, Sally Ford and The Pachuco Playboys have performed at festivals, events and venues around Australia. This band is perfect for private functions and huge events.

“Latin Music has always been a strong point (in Melbourne) and non play it harder, faster or more danceable than Sally Ford and The Pachuco Playboys… the band has that classic big band sound fronted by Ford that guarantees a big night on the dance floor.”
Kate Welsman, The Age
